Melodically and thematically similar to Curtis Mayfield’s “Pusherman”:
I’m your momma, I’m your daddy
I’m that nigga in the alley
I’m your doctor when in need
Want some coke? Have some weed
You know me, I’m your friend
Your main boy, thick and thin
I’m your pusherman

It’s funny cause I didn’t get the idea from Mayfield’s song. I got it from Ice-T’s “Power” record. I didn’t know Ice got it from “Pusherman.” I used the melody, but changed the words.
Ice-T’s version:
I’m your momma, I’m your daddy
I’m that nigga in the alley
I’m your brother when you need
A true player to emcee
You know me, a true friend
Your main boy, thick and thin
MC Ice-T
I’m your pusher
As for the drugs that he’s “pushing”: that would be Psilocybin mushrooms, LSD, prescription tablets and aspirin (possibly being sold as harder drugs to rip off unsuspecting customers), marijuana, and an over-the counter supplement that was well known in the 90’s, Mini-Thin: a bronchiodilator containing a drug very similar to methamphetamine called ephedrine. Back then it was easier to get a Mini-Thin because people weren’t aware of its harmful effects, so it was an easy to access way to get high.

This line is reminiscent of Nas’s Shootouts, in which he professes his love for army apparel and talks about how it is related to battle, using it to take cover in trees while he shoots at his enemies.
Plus the lining is perfect for hiding an Uzi.
